Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

With red brick buildings covered in ivy, connected by arches and walkways through fir trees and green grass, Puget Sound is a beautiful place to spend four or more years. Students have a lot of respect for the well-kept campus and the efforts the employees put in to keep it that way. Several students praise the Fitness Center as being better equipped than the facilities of other schools, and are big fans of the Rock Climbing Wall. While some students enjoy the architecture, others enjoy the recent renovations to several buildings and hope for more in the future.

The buildings are well planned, inside and out. The tennis pavilion is the largest in the state. The athletic facilities are small, but complete, and they are never so full that you have to leave. We have a pool that is open almost all the time for lap swimming, a rock climbing wall, and a pretty extensive weight room, and the student union building is the hub of campus life. In it, students eat at one of eight establishments, check their mail, go to the health center, and get tickets to local concerts and academic presentations. The University is continually undertaking new capital projects—two of the newer buildings on campus are Wyatt, an academic building with several computer classrooms, and Trimble, a suite-style upperclassmen dorm with four to six single rooms that open off of a common area. Overall, the campus is made up of more than just the residence halls, athletic facilities, and academic buildings; all of these fit together nicely to form a beautiful complete University.

Useful

The facilities are alright. the fitness center is very, very small and should be bigger considering that the athletic teams are in there everyday. The library and the student center are great and offer very useful resources.

The Facilites Are Ok

The Facilities look very nice, and the houses and dorms are standard. But the weight room could use more machines, and Todd field (the non-football field for all other sports) is built on a parking lot and becomes a mud pile every year. So there are some silly decisions made around campus but generally everything is up to par.

Facts

Favorite Things To Do

After class, students can meet up with friends and see a movie on campus for just a buck or they can listen to the campus radio station, 90.1 KUPS while they unwind from classes in their dorms. To get active, many students work out at the Olympic weight room or cardio room located in the Fitness Center, tackle the student-run Rock Climbing Wall, play at the Tennis Pavilion, or use the racquetball court or pool. Nature lovers can take in a breathtaking view of Mount Rainier from the steps of Jones Hall, or the more laid-back student can relax in the student-run café and sip coffee while reading.

Go to a movie or play or listen to some of the local bands that are always on campus while reading, studying, or just chatting over coffee.
